Forty-three persons chronically exposed to vinyl chloride were examined. In their blood serum activity of AlAT and AspAT aminotransferases, alkaline phosphatase, concentration of total protein and electrophoretic fraction, thymol test value, concentration of ferrum, latent and total ability of ferrum binding, and transferrin ferrum saturation coefficient were determined. In addition, determined were bromsulphtaleinic test and J-131 labelled Bengal red test; furthermore, protein synthesis index was determined, using the Se-75 labelled selenemethionine.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines aminolevulinic dehydratase (ALAD) activity in 293 individuals without occupational exposure to ALAD inhibitors, revealing no significant differences between genders despite variations in mean values.
  • ALAD activity distribution was normal across both genders and varied significantly among different age groups, but no direct correlation was found between ALAD activity and blood hemoglobin concentration.
  • Additionally, 32 participants exposed to lead were tested, with no correlation identified between blood lead levels and ALAD activity.

Djuricz's antabus test has been applied in a group chronically exposed to carbon disulphide. Sixty eight viscose industry workers hospitalized in the Clinic of Occupational Diseases, Institute of Occupational Medicine, Lódź, have been examined along with controls. In all subjects, after oral administration of antabus, the content of diethyldithiocarbamates (DDC) was determined in a 5 hr urine sample.
